(55) Hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, L-malic acid, adipic acid, L-tartaric acid, hippuric acid, citric acid, mucic acid, ascorbic acid, benzoic acid, gentisic acid, nicotinic acid, ethanedisulfonic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, 2-hydroxyl ethanesulfonic acid and the like were reacted with the compound of formula (II) to prepare the corresponding acid addition salts. The acid addition salts were then screened under the conditions of the above example. However, all of the tested salt forms failed to obtain a crystal form of the compound as characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. The products were mainly jellies, and no crystal was obtained.

(56) The embodiments of the present application have been described above. However, the present application is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
